Today is Saturday, March 31, 2018. Hi, my name is Adam Burton, and you are listening to The Daily Devo, a short devotional designed to help you apply God's Word to your life. The content comes from the Gospel Project. Take a few moments and read 1 Corinthians, chapter 15, verses 128.
Over time, it has become popular in our culture to question even the possibility of miracles. However, of all the miracles that cause problems for those who reject the idea of them, Jesus' resurrection is the most controversial, debated, and denied. Maybe some people find it easier to believe the parting of the Red Sea, men appearing from heaven, or an endless supply of flour and oil. And to believe in Jesus' resurrection, why is this one miracle so much more divisive than all the rest?
Maybe it's because it's the one miracle that demands a personal decision about who Jesus is. The resurrection is essential to the Gospel message because it displays God's defense of the life and work of Jesus Christ. If you believe in the resurrection, then you are forced to believe Jesus is the Son of God. If you deny the resurrection, you continue in your rejection of Jesus.
For this reason, the resurrection is one of the most important events in human history. Jesus' resurrection not only changed the course of history, but it also has the power to change people's eternal destinies if they believe. Think about this. How did you come to believe in Jesus' resurrection?
Was it a difficult step of faith for you? What evidence has led you to believe the resurrection really happened? If you are a need a prayer, please get in touch with me. I would love to pray for you.
